Hello to all my friends! We are all hanging in here. It's been so tough since Grandma passed. I miss her more and more each day. I still can't believe she is gone. There is so much I wish I could share with her. I know she is our angel, and is watching over us!
On February 4th mom will be 2 years cancer free!! She has her colonoscopy tomorrow (which will come back clean!) and as long as that is ok, it'll be official. I'm so happy for her and I know Grandma would be even more happy.
Mom and I are still running strong. We are trying our hardest. We will be running Marine Corps Marathon in October again! I'm super excited!!!
My birthday was on the 16th. I had a wonderful weekend with my parents and friends. My co workers also through me a party :)

Some more 2012 updates

Hi everyone! All has been going well here. Mom went to the oncologist and he was very pleased with to inform her that she still is cancer free and ok! She has her colonoscopy on 1/30. If that goes well (which it will), February 4th will be her 2 years cancer free mark!!!! I'm so so happy for her. It's been a long journey but she deserves the best. I wish my Grandma was here to see all this; she'd be so proud.

Mom and I are still running. We are running MCM in October. This marathon will be in honor of my Grandma. She fought and suffered for 4 long hard months but was always smiling. This marathon is not even close to being what she went through, but I'm running it in honor of her.

On Monday, I will be celebrating my 23rd birthday!!!! I can't believe it, time is flying by. I'm so blessed for my friends and family <3

10/17/43-9/28/11


Hi everyone! I've been MIA for several months now. I promise to post at least 1-2 weekly! It's been a hard year. On May 26, 2011, my 67 year old Grandmother (whom I was so close with) was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She underwent treatments and we were all so positive. Long story short, she suffered for 4 long awful months, and God took her from us at 8:24 pm on September 28, 2011. This was the hardest thing to deal with, but we know that she is in a better place now. She will be missed always and forever. The first pic is my healthy Grandma, and the second pic is Grandma, still looking gorgeous, struggling through brutal treatments.
